General Information

1. General Information

1.1. Features The TRICOR Mass Flow Meter, based on the Coriolis principle, have many advantages compared to other Flow Meter principles.

• No moving parts • High accuracy (0.1%) • Simultaneous measuring of mass flow, density and temperature • Calculation of volume flow as well as mass and volume total • Flushable

The TRICOR Mass Flow Meters are available as compact versions with onsite display and as meter with remote display for wall or panel mount.

All versions are available as standard version as well as Ex certified for hazardous locations (ATEX, IECEx, cCSAus).

The meters provide the following features:

• A graphic display • Menu driven control with soft keys for easy operation (also without manual) • Magnet hall switches for Ex areas • Two freely programmable 4…20 mA outputs • One freely programmable frequency output • One control input and one control output • RS485 interface

Available options are:

• HART® interface • One 4…20 mA input for pressure measurement • Pressure compensation • Foundation Fieldbus® communications

General Information

1.2. Safety 1.2.1. General Safety

All statements regarding safety of operation and technical data in this manual will only apply when the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter is operated correctly in accordance with this manual.

The data for Ingress Protection (IPnn) will only apply when all connectors are caped properly with the corresponding counterpart with the same or better IP rating. Cable glands must be populated with cables with the specified diameter and closed properly. The display cover must be closed.

During operation all openings of the housing must be closed unless otherwise is noted in this manual.

All electrical connections to the load and to the supply must be made with shielded cables unless otherwise is noted in this manual. The TCM must be grounded.

As a protection against fire in the positive supply, a fuse with a current rating not higher than the current carrying capacity of the cable used is required.

Before installing the Flow Meter and transmitter, the user is responsible to ensure that all wetted parts are compatible with the fluid or gas to be measured.

The user has to adhere to the instructions for installing electrical devices and corresponding instructions.

The devices described in this manual may only be connected and operated by authorized and qualified personnel.

1.2.2. Special Requirements for Ex Installations

Before installing and using TRICOR Mass Flow Meters in hazardous locations it is absolutely needed to read and to observe the “Installation Manual for Hazardous Areas”.

Document No.: TCM_E80_E_EN_160520_E004

In hazardous locations the covers of the wall mount electronics must not be opened under any circumstances if the supply voltage is alive. For operating the keys the magnet must be used.

The analog and digital I/O signals are not specified for driving Ex i circuits.

When using long cables make sure that the maximum inductances and capacitances for the respective voltage or gas group are not exceeded.

WARNING! All specified limiting values and parameters stated in “Installation Manual for Hazardous Areas” must be adhered to at all times. Failure to do so can cause equipment failure and can lead to serious injury or death.

1.2.3. Rupture Disc Handling

All TRICOR flow meters are fitted with a rupture disc installed on the case. A rupture disc, also known a “burst disc,” is a pressure relief device to protect systems from over-pressurization. In a Coriolis flow meter, the rupture disc prevents pressure from building up inside the welded case. In the event of an extreme failure where the internal flow tubes leak, the rupture disc element will open up once the internal case pressure exceeds approximately 58 psi (4 bar).

To avoid personal injury or property damage, connect a pipe or hose to the rupture disc housing in order to direct the relieved liquid and/or gas from the meter’s case through the rupture disc to a safe location, away from operators in the area. It is the user’s sole responsibility for the design of adequate venting and installation of adequate vent piping or directional flow after rupture occurs with the rupture disc as intended.

General Information

Particles may discharge when the rupture disc ruptures. These particles may be part of the rupture disc itself, or other environmental matter in the system. It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure that the particles are directed to a safe location to prevent personal injury or property damage.

WARNING! Take care not to puncture the rupture disc when installing a pipe or fitting to the rupture disc housing, which could cause premature failure of the rupture disc. The flow meter case is filled with a dry inert gas to prevent moisture from building up. Any puncture or other physical damage to the rupture disc would allow moisture into the meter case, compromising the integrity of the meter and potentially resulting in inaccurate measurement results or total meter failure over time.

1.2.4. Warnings in this Manual

NOTE: Notes provide important information for the correct usage of the equipment. If the notes are not observed, a malfunction of the equipment is possible.

WARNING! Warnings provide very important information for the correct usage of the equipment. Not observing the warnings may lead to danger for the equipment and to danger for health and life of the user

General Information

1.4. Measuring Principle TCM Two parallel flow tubes inside the TCM Flow Meter are vibrating at their natural frequency in opposite direction. Any mass flow passing through the tubes will delay the vibration at the incoming side and accelerate the vibration at the outgoing side. This causes a small time shift between both ends of the tube. This time shift is measured and used to calculate the mass flow through the tubes.

By measuring the natural frequency of the tubes the density of the medium can be calculated.

As both effects are temperature dependent, the temperature is measured by means of an accurate temperature sensor for correcting the temperature effects on flow and density measurement.

As a result a Coriolis Mass Flow Meter measures directly mass flow, density and temperature of the medium. Knowing the mass flow and the density, also the volume flow can be calculated.

Getting Started

2.4. Quick Start WARNING! As for safety and accuracy reasons many precautions must be taken, read chapter 3 carefully before installing the TCM!

In case the TCM has only to be operated without flow for testing or learning purpose, at least the following connections have to be made (see chapter 3.3):

• Connect the TCE to the TCM (only required with the separate version) • Connect the supply voltage • The various inputs and outputs as well as the interface may be connected as well, if those features

are required.

WARNING! If the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter is connected to a bigger system, for your personal safety connect the protective ground as well!

WARNING! In hazardous areas it is not allowed to operate the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter without proper wiring in accordance with chapter 3.3.6 and with the housing not properly closed!

2.4.1. First Operation

Make sure that all mechanical and electrical connections are made properly.

Switch on the power supply. The LED “OK” will flash green.

After the power up sequence the display shows the preselected values (ex factory: “FLOW” and “BATCH”)

Switch on the flow. The value indicated in the display should be positive.

In case of an error the LED “ERR” will flash red.

As soon as the TCM has reached the operating temperature, make the zero point calibration (see chapter 4.2.2 and 4.5.3 for detailed information):

• Switch off the flow • Wait until the flow through the TCM is zero • Start the zero offset calibration in the “ZERO OFFSET” menu • Wait until the offset procedure is finished • Switch on the flow again

The display can be altered by pressing the pushbutton “Display”.

The internal device status can be viewed by pressing the pushbutton “Info”.

If the function is activated, the BATCH reading can be reset to zero by pressing the pushbutton “Reset”.

To open the control menu press button “P” for three seconds.


33

Getting Started

2.4.2. CONTROL Menu

In the “CONTROL“ menu all configurations can be made. This includes configuration of the analog and digital outputs, customizing the display and other settings.

The menu itself is self-explaining; the function of the softkeys is indicated in the display above the pushbuttons.

To enter the “CONTROL“ menu press the pushbutton “P” for three seconds.

If a global access code is set, the “CONTROL“ menu is completely locked (see chapter 6.6).

With no global access code the submenu “DISPLAY” can be entered without a password as any changes in this submenu will not affect the operation of the TCM.

The submenus “ZERO OFFSET”, “SETUP”, “I/O-TEST” and “SERVICE” are password protected for avoiding unintentional changes of the operating parameters.

For “ZERO OFFSET”, “SETUP” and “I/O-TEST” the password is “2207”, for “SERVICE” refer to chapter 6.

Change the indicated number “2206” with the softkey “UP” to “2207” and confirm with “P”.

Select the desired submenu with the softkeys and confirm with “P”.

Every setting must be confirmed with “P” for storing the setting or with “EXIT” for exiting without storing.

For leaving the “SETUP” menu press “EXIT” until the TCE returns to the main level.

2.4.3. Using the magnet

The explosion-proof variants with the blue Ex d housings provide a magnet to be able to operate the pushbuttons without opening the display cover.

In hazardous, wet and dusty areas the display cover must not be opened to operate the pushbuttons.

Beside every pushbutton there is a hall sensor which can be operated via the magnet attached to the housing.

For operating the pushbuttons hold the magnet to the glass.

The best positions for operating the keys are:

3.1. Important Installation Guidelines Coriolis Mass Flow Meters measure the flow of a liquid or gas by vibrating the medium perpendicular to the flow direction and measuring the effect of the inertial force of the medium. Consequently, for best performance the meter must be decoupled from external vibrations and the medium must be homogenous.

It is recommended to install a valve before and after the meter. For the zero calibration both valves should be closed.

3.1.1. External Vibrations

In case of (possible) external vibrations connect the meter mechanically rigidly to a non-vibrating point or – if this is not possible – connect it by means of vibration dampers.

The small meters (TCM 0325 through TCM 3100) can be mounted via optional mounting threads or mounting holes (TCMH 0450) on the back side. All other meters must not be fixed directly, but via holders connected to the external tubing, as close as possible to the flanges of the meter.

In case of vibrating tubes a decoupling via flexible hoses might be recommended.

Piston pumps and other pumps producing a strongly pulsating flow should be decoupled hydraulically via longer pipes, flexible tubes or other measures.

The high pressure changes in short intervals over long time period should be avoided! If it is though an application requirement, please contact our internal sales for technical support!

3.1.2. Inhomogeneous Media

If a liquid might contain gas bubbles or solid particles, care must be taken that the gas bubbles or the solid particles will not remain in the meter.

If a pure liquid or a liquid with possible gas bubbles is to be measured, the meter should be installed horizontally with the meter tubes down. This assures that gas bubbles will not accumulate in the measuring tubes. Meters with U-shaped tubes (TCM 5500 and bigger) can also be mounted vertically.

If a liquid might contain solid particles, the meter should be installed horizontally with the meter tubes up. This assures that the solid particles will not accumulate in the measuring tubes. Meters with U- shaped tubes (TCM 5500 and bigger) can also be mounted vertically.

The TCM 0325 through TCM 3100 and TCMH 0450 must not be mounted vertically, as according to the diamond shaped tube geometry gas bubbles as well as solid particles would accumulate in the meter.

Two phase media with gas bubbles (like foam) or solid particles (like paints or slurry) can be measured without any problems, if the gas bubbles or solid particles are small compared to the tube diameter and evenly distributed. The mounting guidelines, must be observed.

If the amount of gas in the measured fluid or vice versa the amount of fluid in the measured gas goes to high, the flow and density readings get significantly disturbed. The disturbances can be properly detected by means of the measured drive current.

To suppress the faulty measurements, you can define a valid drive current range by specifying drive current thresholds “max drive current” and “min drive current”, as shown in the picture below:


35

Installation

As long as the current drive current stays within the valid range, the flowrate and density will be calculated based on the analog inputs. Otherwise the input signals will be suppressed and the process parameter flow rate and density are set to 0 g/s and 0.001 g/cc.

The drive current thresholds can be specified by means of TRICOR Configurator. The software is license free and can be downloaded from our web site: www.kem-kueppers.com/downloads/software/?lang=en

3.1.3. Density CUT OFF for Gas

If you change from liquid applications to gas applications make sure to change to the DENSITY CUT OFF to 0.0 [units] (see chapter 4.5.6.3).

3.2. Mechanical Installation In accordance with this manual the user should select the installation position which fits the application best. To ensure the highest degree of accuracy and repeatability, care should be taken to affix the TRICOR products in a stable process site and minimize the amount of vibration in the installation environment.

3.2.1. Horizontal Installation

The horizontal installation is the recommended installation.

If the medium might contain solid particles, mount the meter as shown in position “A”, in all other cases as shown in position “B”.

Install the meter to a solid, non-vibrating surface as close to the meter as possible. With the TCM 0325 through TCM 3100 this could be done via the optional mounting threads or with the TCMH 0450 via the mounting holes.

If no non-vibrating surface is available, vibration dampers might be recommended.

Fig. 16: Recommended horizontal Installation

3.2.2. Vertical Installation

TCMH Mass Flow Meters for high pressure applications (>400 bar) should not be mounted in vertical position.

The diamond shaped TCM 0325 through TCM 3100 should not be mounted vertically except you are sure that the medium contains neither gas bubbles nor solid particles.

All other meters can be mounted vertically. This would be the recommended position, if the medium might contain gas bubbles and solid particles.

It is recommended to mount the meter in an upstream position for avoiding that it runs empty during operation.

Fix the meter to a solid, non-vibrating surface as close to the meter as possible.

If no non-vibrating surface is available, vibration dampers might be recommended.

Installation

Fig. 17: Vertical Installation

3.2.3. Installation in a Drop line

The diamond shaped TCM 0325 through TCM 3100 should not be mounted vertically except you are sure that the medium contains neither gas bubbles nor solid particles.

TCMH Mass Flow Meters for high pressure applications (>400 bar) should not be mounted in vertical position.

All other meters can be mounted vertically, but flow going down is only allowed as long as there is significant backpressure on the meter to prevent any type of waterfall effect and to assure the meter remains constantly full of the liquid.

38

Installation

3.2.4. Critical Installations

The meters must not be mounted at the highest point of the tubing (A), if gas bubbles are to be expected, or at the lowest point (B), if solid particles are to be expected, as in both cases also the right orientation might not help.

Also the meters must not be mounted in a drop line near the open end (C), as in that case the meter might run empty.

Fig. 19: Critical Installations

3.2.5. Mechanical Installation of the Electronics (remote versions)

TCE 8***-W The wall mount TCE is to be mounted on the wall with 2 screws with 5 mm diameter, about 40 mm apart. For exact dimensions refer to chapter 7.3.7.

TCE 8***-L, TCE 8***-S The housing requires an opening in the panel of 92 mm x 92 mm (TCE 8***-S) or 138 mm x 92 mm (TCE 8***-L) at a maximum panel thickness of 2 mm.

Push the TCE 8*** into the opening. The springs will fix the unit automatically.

For removing the TCE 8*** press the springs towards the housing via a screwdriver.

WARNING! For mounting the TCM in hazardous areas refer to the “Installation Manual for Hazardous Areas”.


39

Installation

3.3. Electrical Installation Make sure that the TCM is properly mounted and the process input and output are connected before making the electrical connections.

The TCM must be grounded.

The TCE requires a regulated DC power supply of 24 V ±20% or a mains voltage of 100 to 240 V AC, depending on the version.

WARNING! Never connect a 24 V only version to the mains supply or vice versa!

The digital inputs and outputs are referred to GND and to the ground potential of the DC supply (= negative pole). The AC supply terminals are electrically isolated from all inputs and outputs.

The ground potential GND is connected to protective ground via a 1 kΩ resistor.The resistor will thermally withstand a potential difference of up to 30 V between PE and GND but for proper operation this difference should be limited to 5 V.

To connect the TCE, shielded cables must be used. The shield should be connected to the case. If the TCM is installed in bigger systems and the shield must not present a DC connection for avoiding high ground loop currents, make the ground connection of the shield via a capacitor of e.g. 100 nF.

WARNING! Improper grounding and shielding may lead to bad EMC behavior or danger to your health!

NOTE: Make sure that all cable and wires are connected and fixed properly before applying power to the TCE.

WARNING! Always switch off the voltage supply before you wire the analog or digital in- and outputs or communication interface. The display module must not be removed if the voltage supply on Coriolis mass meter is on. Otherwise all totals can be reset.

3.3.4. Power Supply and Grounding

3.3.4.1. 24V DC Power Supply

The TCE requires a regulated DC power supply of 24 V ±20%.

The power supply input of the TCE is protected by a fuse. As a protection against fire in case of a short in the supply cable, the output of the power supply must be equipped with a fuse with a rating not higher than the current carrying capacity of the cable used.

For connecting the TCE use shielded cables. If several cables are used, each cable should be shielded properly.

Connect the ground of your power supply to terminal 51 and the 24 V to terminal 50 (see Fig. 20).

Fig. 20: Wiring diagram for power connections, DC operation

Terminal Description 50 Positive supply voltage, 24 V ±20%, referred to pin 51 51 Negative supply voltage 52 Protective ground

The ground terminals 8 and 51 are internally connected together.

Ground and protective ground are internally connected via a 1 kΩ resistor. The resistor will thermally withstand a potential difference of up to 30 V between PE and GND but for proper operation this difference should be limited to 5 V.

3.3.4.2. 100…240V AC Mains Supply

The AC version of the TCE requires a nominal power supply of 100…240 V AC and operates over a range of 90…264 V AC.

The power supply input of the TCE is protected by a 1 A slow blow fuse. As a protection against fire in case of a short in the supply cable, the output of the power supply must be equipped with a fuse with a rating not higher than the current carrying capacity of the cable used.

For the mains powered TCE a good connection of PE is mandatory. The cross section of the PE cable should be at least equivalent to the cross section of the supply cable or to 1 mm², whichever is higher.

Connect the supply to terminal 91 (neutral) and 90 (phase). (see Fig. 21)

Terminal Description 5 Frequency output, active, referred to pin 8 6 Status output, active, referred to pin 8 7 Control input, active “HIGH”, referred to pin 8 8 Ground potential for digital I/O- pins.

The frequency and control outputs are active push-pull outputs with an output resistance of 220 Ω. They can be loaded to the positive supply or to ground. For a high output swing the load resistors Rload should not be lower than 1 kΩ.

In case of a load resistor to ground the output voltages are:

Vhigh = Vsupply * Rload / (220 Ω + Rload) Vlow < 1 V

In case of a load resistor to the positive supply the output voltages are:

Vhigh > Vsupply – 1 V Vlow = Vsupply - Vsupply * Rload / (220 Ω + Rload)

TCE 8000


45

Installation

The control input requires a high voltage of minimum 6.5 V and a minimum input current of 0.1 mA.

The ground terminals 8 and 51 are internally connected together.

Ground and protective ground are internally connected via a 1 kΩ resistor. The resistor will thermally withstand a potential difference of up to 30 V between PE and GND but for proper operation this difference should be limited to 5 V.

3.3.6. Connecting the Analog Outputs

The TCE 8000 provides two independent passive 4…20 mA current loops CURRENT 1 and CURRENT 2.

The current loops are isolated from each other and from the power supply.

For operation an external supply of 8…30 V (nominal 24 V DC) is required.

The minimum voltage between terminal 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 respectively is 8 V.

The minimum load resistance is 0 Ω, the maximum is determined by the supply voltage.

At a given supply voltage the maximum load resistance can be calculated as:

Rload(max) = (Vsupply – 8 V) / 22 mA

For +24 V minus 10% supply this gives a maximum value of 620 Ω.

With a given load resistance, the minimum supply voltage can be calculated as:

Vsupply(min) = 8 V + Rload * 22 mA

Manual Operation

***……. WARNING …….*** NO ACTUAL RAM BACKUP

SEE MANUAL OK

If no pushbutton is pressed the warning will disappear automatically after 10 seconds.

The absence of valid backup data has no influence on the reliability of operation of the meter. The backup is just used to restore the last operation setting in case important parameters of the TCE have misadjusted

For further information refer to chapter 4.5.9.

Now the TCE 8000 switches to the measuring mode, displaying the default screen:

0.000RATE 0.00TOTAL

The green LED “OK” flashes with a one second period. In case of an error the red LED “ERR” flashes.

In manual control the TCE is menu driven and provides two operational modes, the “Measuring Mode” and the “Control Mode”.

In the measuring mode the display shows the preselected measured values and all four pushbuttons have the function printed on them. The switch over between the different display views can be made at any time, by pressing the “Display” button, without influencing neither the measurement nor the digital or analog outputs.

In the control mode the three pushbuttons below the display have varying functions. The actual function is indicated in the display, just above the pushbutton.

In the control menu all necessary settings can be made.

The control menu contains the submenus “ZERO OFFSET”, “DISPLAY”, “SETUP”, “I/O-TEST”, “SERVICE” and “FACTORY”.

For protecting the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter against unintentional changes by unauthorized personnel, the menus “ZERO OFFSET”, “SETUP” and “I/O-TEST” are protected by a user password, the menu “SERVICE” by a service password and the menu “FACTORY” by a factory password.

Additionally, a global access code can be set that locks the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter completely.

For the description of the control menu see chapter 4.5.

4.1.1. Using the Magnet

The explosion-proof variants with the blue Ex d housings provide a magnet to be able to operate the pushbuttons without opening the display cover.

In hazardous, wet and dusty areas the display cover must not be opened to operate the pushbuttons.

Manual Operation

4.2. Setup Guidelines Ex factory the TRICOR Mass Flow Meters come with a setup optimized for normal applications. In more than 90% of the applications no further optimization except a zero offset adjustment is required.

The different possibilities for optimizing the settings are described below.

4.2.1. Meter Mode

A Coriolis Mass Flow Meter measures the mass flow and the density and can calculate the volume flow.

For avoiding strange effects with the total values when changing the engineering units, the TCE 8000 can be set up as a Mass Flow Meter, a Volume Flow Meter, a Gas Flow Meter or a Net Oil Computer.

When set up as Mass Flow Meter, only mass flow engineering units can be selected, when set up as Volume Flow Meter or Net Oil Computer, only volume flow engineering units can be selected and when set up as Gas Flow Meter, only standard volume flow engineering units can be selected

For changing the meter mode refer to chapter 4.5.6.1. For the detailed description of the operating modes „REF .VOLUME“ und „NET OIL“ please refer to the Net Oil Computer Addendum, e.g. on the TRICOR website: http://tricorflow.com/support/downloads/

4.2.2. Offset Adjustment

In contrast to a positive displacement meter, a Coriolis Mass Flow Meter does not have a “natural” zero. At no flow the measured time shift is nearly zero, but not exactly. The offset adjustment determines this offset and corrects the measured value correspondingly.

As the offset depends slightly upon the temperature, the density of the medium and the operating pressure, it is strongly recommended to make the offset procedure under working conditions, i.e. with the medium to be measured and at operating pressure and temperature.

To execute an offset adjustment, please refer to chapter 4.3.5 and 4.5.3.

4.2.3. Flow Filter

The raw data of a Mass Flow Meter is relatively noisy. To get a stable reading a filtering of the calculated flow is required.

The filters in the TCE 8000 are set by means of the time constant t. The time constant is the time the output needs, after a jump from a value x to 0, to go to x/e = x/2.72. A higher time constant means more stable reading, but also a slower reaction to changing flows.

A rough relation between the time and the filtered flow value after a jump is:

Elapsed time Remaining Error (% of the step)

1 * t 30 2 * t 10 3 * t 3 4 * t 1

A linear filter as it is realized in the TCE 8000 electronics just delays the flow reading and consequently the “TOTAL” value. Independent of the slope (fast or slow) of the rising and falling flow, the error of the internally calculated TOTAL and at the frequency output are canceled out, if the flow rises from zero (or any other value) and later goes back to the starting value. For getting a correct “TOTAL” via the display or the frequency output, it is just necessary to wait long enough after the flow is switched off.

http://tricorflow.com/support/downloads/


51

Manual Operation

For best results the TCE 8000 electronics provides two filters.

The “FLOW FILTER” filters the mass flow before calculating the TOTAL or the frequency and current outputs. For normal applications a moderate filtering with t = 1 s is recommended.

The “DISPLAY FILTER” filters the flow display additionally to the “FLOW FILTER”. It does not affect any other parameter or any of the outputs. The default setting is t = 1 s.

If the flow is changing fast or sometimes makes a jump and the outputs have to react as fast as possible, set “FLOW FILTER” to t < 1 s. If nevertheless the flow display has to be stable for better readability, the “DISPLAY FILTER” can be increased.

For setting up the “FLOW FILTER” refer to chapter 4.5.7.1, for the “DISPLAY FILTER” to chapter 4.5.4.2.

4.2.4. CUT OFF

As mentioned above, a Mass Flow Meter has no natural zero and the raw data is noisy. Consequently, with no flow, a meter would indicate and give out continuously a small fluctuating flow.

The parameter “CUT OFF” is used to provide a clear zero. If the calculated and filtered flow is below “CUT OFF”, the meter indicates zero, the “TOTAL” values remain unchanged and the outputs show zero flow as well.

The value for “CUT OFF” must be above the noise floor in the given application and well below the minimum flow to be measured. As a good compromise the default value for “CUT OFF” is 0.5% of the full scale range of the meter.

For setting “CUT OFF” please refer to chapter 4.5.6.3.

4.2.5. STEP RESPONSE

Sometimes it is necessary to react fast to a fast changing flow, but also to have a stable output, if the flow is (mostly) constant. This cannot be achieved by adjusting the flow filter.

The parameter “STEP RESPONSE” provides a fast reaction at fast changing flow, also the filter constant is high.

If the difference between the measured flow and the filtered flow is smaller than the “STEP RESPONSE” value, the flow filter remains active. If the difference is higher than step response, the filter is cleared and filled with the new value.

The recommended value for constant or slowly changing flow is 99% (the default value). If the unit has to react to fast changing flow, the optimum value depends on the individual situation. For ON/OFF operation a value of half the ON flow is recommended.

If “STEP RESPONSE” is set too low, even small changes in flow or even the internal noise will activate the step response function and partially or all the time deactivate the filter, leading to noisy readings and noisy output signals.

For setting “STEP RESPONSE” refer to chapter 4.5.6.4.

4.2.6. Interaction of the Parameters

As each of the three parameters affects the calculation of the flow in a different way, a bad combination of different parameters can lead to systematical errors.

FLOW FILTER and CUT OFF If the filter constant is set to a high value, the calculated flow is delayed compared to the actual flow. In ON-OFF operation this leads to the fact that it takes a long time until the calculated flow settles to the ON or OFF value. The “TOTAL” value remains correct if the TCM measures long enough after the flow got switched off. If “CUT OFF” is set to a high value, the meters stops measuring too early and consequently the calculated “TOTAL” is too low. Also the number of pulses at the frequency output is too low. The error is systematic.


52

Manual Operation

NOTE: In ON-OFF operation high values for the flow filter combined with high values for “CUT OFF” must be avoided! Jumps of the flow not going down to zero are not affected by “CUT OFF”.

FLOW FILTER and STEP RESPONSE A linear filter just delays the flow reading and consequently the total but does not alter the final “TOTAL”.

If the “STEP RESPONSE” is activated, a nonlinear term is added to the filter. The indicated flow will follow more closely the total flow, but the remaining deviation depends on the values for the filter and for “STEP RESPONSE”, but also on the slope of the flow change and on the size of a step.

If the flow changes slowly or a jump is smaller than “STEP RESPONSE”, the function will not be activated and remains linear all the time, producing the normal delay.

If the flow changes fast and the step is higher than “STEP RESPONSE”, the filter will be made faster, the indicated flow follows more closely the actual flow and the delay will be smaller.

In ON-OFF operation with a fast rising and slowly falling flow a systematic positive error is to be expected. If the rising is slow and the falling fast, the error will be negative.

WARNING! If “STEP RESPONSE” is used (e.g. for good reaction to fast changing flow), checking the accuracy for the given application is strongly recommended!


53

Manual Operation

4.3. Measuring Mode 4.3.1. Function of the Pushbuttons

In the measuring mode all pushbuttons have a fixed function:

P Opens the Control Menu if pressed for about three seconds Reset Resets the “BATCH” counter to zero, if the function “KEY RESET” is enabled Display Toggles the display between the preselected settings. Info Opens the info menu

4.3.2. Display Selection

The TCE provides two presettable display views. Ex factory view 1 shows the flow and the “TOTAL” value, view 2 shows density and temperature.

In the “fixed mode” the display view selected by the user remains active until the other view is selected.

For changing from one view to the other just press the pushbutton “Display”.

In the “alternate mode” the TCM toggles between display view 1 and 2 every seven seconds. In this mode the pushbutton “Display” is without function.

For changing the content of the display views, please refer to chapter 4.5.4.

4.3.3. Display Resolution

The measured values can be displayed with 8 digits, including decimal point and sign. The most positive value therefore is “9999999.” (7 digits), the most negative value is “-999999.” (6 digits).

If the decimal point is set in that way that one or more decimal points are displayed and the value to be displayed exceeds the display range, the decimal point will be shifted to the right.

Example: Decimal point setting: x.xxx x.xxx Measured value: 12345.6789 -12345.6789 DP setting changed to: xx.xx xxx.x Displayed value: 12345.67 -12345.6

The new setting for the decimal point will remain, also if the measured value goes down again. It can only be reset to the original settings in the “DISPLAY” menu.

If the decimal point is at the most right position and the measured or calculated value is still too big for being displayed, the display shows “DISPLAY OVERFLOW”. As soon as the measured value returns into the displayable range, the error message disappears and the display shows the value.

If the display shows “DISPLAY OVERFLOW”, change the engineering units. If any “TOTAL” display shows “DISPLAY OVERFLOW”, you can also reset the “TOTAL” values. (see chapter 4.5.10).

4.3.4. Resetting the Batch (TOTAL-) Value

For easy batching in local operation the TCE provides the possibility to reset the Batch value by pressing the pushbutton “Reset”.

For protecting the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter against unintentional resetting, this function can be disabled.

Ex works the function is disabled.

For changing the setting, please refer to chapter 4.5.6.5.

Manual Operation

4.3.5. Event Logging

Starting with software version Mv3.40 and Dv3.40, all TRICOR Coriolis mass flow meters include event logging that records events occurring at runtime with a timestamp and a unique code. These events can either be shown on the display or read/reset (erased) via Modbus. The use of event logging is explained below using the display as an example. For a description of access via Modbus, see the Modbus manual (document: “Modbus (RTU) Manual”: chapter 3.6).

There are three event classes:

• INFO: Information that a permissible event has occurred (successful initialisation for example). • WARN: Warning that a generally permissible but possibly problematic event has occurred • ERR:ON or ERR:OFF: Indicates that an error state has occurred (ERR:ON) or is no longer active

(ERR:OFF)

4.3.5.1. Event codes

All events codes are listed below and their meanings are explained.

Manual Operation

4.3.5.2. Info and event log menu

The TCE display has an info and event log menu for straightforward troubleshooting. The contents of this menu are not of interest for normal operation. It only contains information for trained personnel.

To open the menu, press the “Info” button for about three seconds. Then the event log menu (“LOG DISPLAY”) is displayed first. All recorded log entries are shown and can be reset (erased) here.

Display of log entries “NO LOGS” is displayed if no events have been recorded or they have all been reset:

** LOG DISPLAY **

NO LOGS

If events have been recorded, the most recent entry is always displayed first (the logged events are displayed in the order in which they occurred).

This is illustrated here with two log entries as an example:

** LOG DISPLAY ** LOG#: 2/2 INFO

TIMESTAMP: 4,800s INITIALIZATION PASSED

Here the most recently recorded (most current) is an INFO event that is the second of a total of two existing log entries. It was recorded approximately 4.8 seconds after powering up the TCE and provides the information that initialisation of the TCE was completed successfully at that time (“INITIALIZATION PASSED”).

Resetting (erasing) event logs Press the “Reset” button to reset (erase) the current log entry.

Provided the displayed event does not represent an active error state (“ERR:ON”), the following dialogue is displayed where you can confirm resetting the log entry by pressing the “Display” button or cancel by pressing the “Reset” button (attention: log entries cannot be restored once they have been reset):


CLEAR THIS LOG ENTRY? YES NO

If the displayed log entry is of the type “ERR:ON”, it cannot be reset as long as the corresponding error state remains active. In this case the following warning is shown on the display when the “Reset” button is pressed:

** LOG DISPLAY ** LOG#: 3/4 ERR:ON

LOG CANNOT BE CLEARED ERROR IS STILL ACTIVE

If you want to reset all log entries at once, you can do so in the setup menu under the menu item “CLEAR LOGS” (see chapter 4.5.11).


57

Manual Operation

Navigating between log entries Press the “Display” button to show the previous event (log entry) in chronological order:


TIMESTAMP: 0,005s POWER ON SEQUENCE

Press the “Info” button to navigate to the previous log entry. You can repeat this until you get to the last log entry.

Info menu When the last log entry is displayed (for instance LOG#: 5/5 INFO), pressing the “Info” button again opens the Info menu that lists the following 7 internal device parameters:

Code Value SA Sensor voltage A in mV SB Sensor voltage B in mV DR Drive current in mA PT Resistance value of the temperature sensor in Ω FRE Oscillating frequency in Hz ZP Zero point offset in µs TSF Filtered time shift in µs

Manual Operation

4.3.6. Totalizer

On the display the following three totalizer can be shown:

• Batch Total • Grand Total • Failure Total

The maximum number of places that can be shown on the display is limited to 7 („1234567“). If a totalizer exceeds this limit, the representation of the total on the display will automatically switch to scientific (exponential) notation. For example, if a totalizer has the value „9999999“ kg and then get incremented by another one kilogram, the totalizer will now display: „1.0000E7“ kg. Thus ensures that no totalizer can be resetted by an overflow in the lifecycle of the device.


59

Manual Operation

4.4. Offset Adjustment For best accuracy the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter needs an in situ offset adjustment. This calibration zeroes out the ambient effects and increases the measuring accuracy at low flow.

The offset adjustment must be carried out with the medium to be measured and at a temperature and pressure as close to the normal operation as possible.

Proceed as follows: Operate the TCM for a while under normal operating conditions to make sure that the actual temperature of the TRICOR Coriolis Mass Flow Meter equals the normal operating temperature.

Switch off the flow. For best results use a valve in front and one behind the TCM. If the valves are not close to the TCM and/or only one valve is used, wait long enough to be sure that there is no more flow through the TCM.

NOTE: If there is a residual flow through the TCM or it is exposed to mechanical shocks during the offset adjustment procedure, the resulting value will be wrong.

Start the offset procedure as follows (see also chapter 4.5.3):

• Press “P” for about three seconds • The display shows “ZERO OFFSET” • Press “P” • Change the indicated number with “UP” to “2207“ and confirm with “P” • Press “SLOW” (recommended) or “FAST” • The display shows “MAKE ZERO” for 10 to 30 seconds and counts down to “0” • Confirm with “Info”

Depending on the meter size and the density of the medium, the offset procedure takes about 10 -20 seconds (FAST) or 30…60 seconds (SLOW). During this procedure the red LED will flash.

For an automatic offset adjustment initiated by the central control unit, the control input can be configured as “Initiate offset”. In that case the TCE starts an offset procedure each time a high level is applied to the input.

To configure the input, please refer to chapter 4.5.8.4.

In the submenu “RESP STEP” the reaction to fast changing flows can be optimized.

NOTE: This submenu is disabled, if the option “FAST RESPONSE” is not implemented.

If the difference between the measured flow and the filtered flow is higher than “STEP RESPONSE”, the filter is cleared and filled with the new value. If it is smaller than the “STEP RESPONSE” value, the flow filter remains active.


77

Manual Operation

The optimum value depends on the individual situation. For ON/OFF operation a value of half the ON flow is recommended.

For deactivating “STEP RESPONSE” set the value to 99%.

NOTE: A too low value leads to unstable readings for flow whereas too high values will disable the function.

Manual Operation

FREQUENCY: A frequency proportional to the actual flow is generated. If a negative flow must be given out as well, the control output can be used as sign. Frequencies between 0.5 Hz and 10 kHz can be generated in this mode.

TOTAL COUNT: Each time the “TOTAL” increments by the selected “TOTAL” increment step, the output produces a pulse. For having a 50 % duty cycle, the output changes its state each time after half the increment step. If the flow is negative in between, no pulses are generated until the following positive flow compensates for the negative flow in between. Thus the medium will not be counted twice, if in between a flow backwards occurs. The maximum output frequency which can be generated in this mode is about 100 Hz.

4.5.8.2. CONTROL OUT Menu

In the submenu “CTRL OUT” the control output can be configured.

The control output has four operating modes:

FAULT: In case of an error the control output goes to the active state. “ACTIVE HIGH” means the output is low in normal operation, high in case of a fault. For setting the on and off delay time, please refer to chapter 4.5.6.8.

FLOW DIR: The flow direction is indicated. “ACTIVE HIGH“ means the output is high if a positive flow is measured.

BATCH: In the batch mode the TCE 8000 operates as a batch counter. If the preset batch value is reached, the control output goes to the active state. With an active signal at the control input the batch counter can be reset to zero. For this mode the control input must be configured as “RESET BATCH”. “ACTIVE HIGH” means the output goes to “HIGH“ when the preset batch value is reached.

FLOW LIMIT: If the actual flow becomes more positive than the “FLOW LIMIT“ plus hysteresis, the output goes to the active state. If the actual flow becomes more negative than the “FLOW LIMIT” minus hysteresis, the output goes to the inactive state. Between flow limit minus hysteresis and flow limit plus hysteresis, the output state does not change.

NOTE: For negative flow limits the relation is: -99 is greater than -100. “ACTIVE HIGH” means the output goes to “HIGH“ when the preset limit value is reached.

OFF: The output is deactivated. “ACTIVE HIGH“ means the output is permanently at high.

FREQUENCY: A frequency proportional to the current flow rate is generated. Frequencies between 0.5 Hz and 10 kHz can be generated in this mode.

DENS. LIMIT: When the measured density exceeds the value for DENS. LIMIT plus the hysteresis, the output enters the active state. When the density becomes less than DENS. LIMIT minus the hysteresis, the output enters the inactive state. The output does not change in between the two thresholds. PHASE SHIFT: Prerequisite: the FREQ-OUT has been programmed for TOTAL COUNT. As soon as “TOTAL” has increased by the chosen amount, another pulse is generated on FREQ OUT. To have a frequency ratio of 50% on the output, the state of the output changes respectively after half the amount. A pulse offset by 90° is also generated on CTRL OUT after each pulse on FREQ-OUT. The maximum output frequency in this operating mode is about 50 Hz.

Service and Maintenance

6. Service and Maintenance

6.1. Maintenance The TRICOR Mass Flow Meters do not require regular maintenance.

In case of abrasive or sedimenting media however, it is recommended to return the measuring system to the manufacturer after 8,000 hours of operation for re-calibration and pressure test. This interval may be shorter when the medium is extremely abrasive or sedimenting. For best performance we recommend checking the calibration every 5 years, in harsh environments even more frequently.

If for the specific application an obligatory calibration is required, refer to the corresponding national regulations for the necessary calibration intervals.

6.2. Trouble Shooting In case the TRICOR Mass Flow Meter does not work properly, first check the following items:

No display, no LED lighting All cables properly connected? Connect the missing cables Power supply switched on? Switch on the power supply Display positioned properly (compact and wall mount only)? Remove the display and reset it properly Internal fuse of the TCE blown? For checking and changing the fuses refer to chapter 6.3.

Output frequency too high or unstable Most probably EMC problems Shield and ground properly connected? Connect shield properly. If necessary, try additional means of grounding and shielding

Unstable flow reading with (theoretically) stable flow Gas bubbles or solid particles in the medium? Mount the meter with the correct orientation Strong external vibrations? Decouple the meter from the vibration source Flow or pressure slugs in the medium? Decouple the meter hydraulically

No frequency or current output with operating display Output correctly wired? Correct the wiring (see chapter 2.3) Output correctly configured? Correct the configuration (see chapter 4.5.8.1) Wrong flow direction (Flow in the display is negative)? Change flow direction (see chapter 4.5.6.6)

Pressure display shows “PRESS ERROR” Input correctly wired? Correct the wiring (see chapter 2.3) Sensor working normally? Check with external digital Ampere meter. If required, replace the sensor

No pressure compensation Compensation enabled? Enable compensation (see chapter 4.5.6.9) Sensor working normally? Check with external digital Ampere meter. If required, replace the sensor

Below the ribbon cable connector you find the following fuse in the fuse holder:

Littelfuse NANO 2 375mA slow blow, ordering code 0452.375

NOTE: For your own safety replace the fuse only by the same type and rating.

Replace the fuse and reclose the unit.

6.3.3. Changing the fuses with the Ex versions

With the Ex versions the fuses are part of the safety barriers and must only be exchanged by KEM/AWL or by personnel authorized by KEM/AWL.

In case one of the fuses has blown, contact KEM/AWL or your nearest dealer.

WARNING! The Ex versions of the TCE 8000 series contain several internal fuses for protecting the intrinsically safe TCM against too high voltage and power. Those fuses are critical parts and must not be exchanged except by KEM/AWL or by service personnel authorized by KEM/AWL. If the fuses are replaced by third persons, the Ex certification for the TCM will be void!

6.4.1. Temperature Calibration

For calibrating the temperature reading of the TCE 8000, the medium temperature must be well known.

Before starting the calibration, make sure that the temperature reading has been stable for several minutes, to make sure that the medium temperature and the temperature of the temperature sensor are the same.

6.4.2. Air Density Calibration

The low end calibration of the density measurement is normally done with empty tubes (filled with air).

In the automatic mode the unit performs an automatic calibration, assuming that the tubes are filled with normal air.

In the manual mode the three parameters temperature, tube frequency and reference density can be altered individually. This is necessary if the air calibration is performed with a gas with a density different than air. In that case make first the automatic calibration and then override in the manual calibration the density value by the density of the medium used for calibration.

Before starting an automatic calibration, make sure that the TCM is completely empty as any drop of a liquid inside will spoil the calibration result.

6.4.3. Water Density Calibration

The high end calibration of the density measurement is normally done tubes filled with water. Butanol or other liquids with well-known density can be used as well.

In the automatic mode the unit performs an automatic calibration, assuming that the tubes are filled with water.

In the manual mode the three parameters temperature, tube frequency and reference density can be altered individually. This is necessary if the water calibration is performed with a liquid with a density different than water. In that case make first the automatic calibration and then override in the manual calibration the density value by the density of the medium used for calibration.

Before starting an automatic calibration, make sure that the TCM is completely filled with the reference medium. Any pollution (air bubbles, solid particles or rests of other liquids) will spoil the calibration result.

6.4.4. Flow Calibration

Mount the TCM in the test stand or mount a reference meter in series to the TRICOR Mass Flow Meter to be calibrated. The accuracy of the test stand or reference meter must be better than 0.1% of reading over the calibration range.

For best results with the zero offset calibration, a valve each in front and behind the TRICOR Mass Flow Meter is recommended.

NOTE: All mounting guidelines (see chapter 3) must be observed! Any erroneous reading due to bad mounting will lead to a wrong calibration!

Operate the meter for at least 15 minutes for making sure that it has reached the final operating temperature. If the medium temperature differs much from the initial meter or ambient temperature, a longer warm up period might be recommended.

Close the valves and make the zero offset adjustment (see chapter 4.3.5 and 4.5.3).

If the calibration of the TRICOR Mass Flow Meter shall be checked without adjusting the reading, just compare the TCM reading with the reading of the reference meter at the desired flow rates.

If the TRICOR shall be adjusted according to the test results, make a test run (or better several tests runs) at about 50% of the TCM full scale flow.

Read the current TCM meter variable:

CALIBRATION MENU METER VAR. UP DOWN EXIT

P SET METER VAR

196.0 RIGHT UP EXIT

Calculate the new meter variable as:

METER_VARnew = METER_VARold * Reference_reading / TCE 8000_reading

If you made several test runs, use the average meter variable.

Use the keys “RIGHT” and “UP” to set the calculated meter variable and confirm with “P” or skip with “EXIT”.

The display returns to the “CALIBRATION” menu.
